Legal Justification

The intention is to make a direct award for the provision of interim catering services under Section 41 of the Procurement Act 2023, supported by the justification outlined in Schedule 5, Paragraph 7 - Continuation of Existing Services. This interim arrangement is necessary while the new tendering activity is completed. The decision is based on the rationale that switching suppliers at this stage would result in disproportionate technical difficulties and incompatibilities, thereby meeting the criteria for direct award under the Act. Particularly due to: Existing supplier infrastructure that is tailored to TfL operational sites. Integrated delivery processes and contractual arrangements already in place. The need to ensure uninterrupted service continuity during high-demand operational periods.
